Why do you think Mary Kate Olsen is so unhappy?

I grew up watching Full House, every single one of them. So when they started growing up I just thought Mary Kate was going through the usual teen rebel stages and nothing else but when she became an adult nothing changed. She dresses very non-conformative and I love it but then she became anorexic, which is not so profound in Hollywood, I get it. Still, I can't understand why SHE seems unhappy and Ashley thriving. Mary Kate seems like her self image is less deserving than her sisters. I've watched every single E tv documentary about them and still can't get at it. Their family life seemed very normal but at the same time very little of their parents was discussed almost like they didnt exist, but they did say their parents were adamant of not allowing them the priveledged life while home, not a bad thing. Now theirs rhumors of the too twins going seperate ways which is something that has gradually happened the past two years. I don't think this is a bad think for Mary Kate, maybe she can create her own life and not be in the shadow of her sister if thats how she feels.

I agree with what you said. I've always seen them in Full House and all the other movies that they've made. I've been a fan of theirs since I was a little girl. I think it's good that she is doing her own thing. Because she needs to feel that she doesn't have to rely on her sister and that has enough talent to do things on her own and be succesful. I think that the both of them together are dynamic but it would do her good to do some stuff by herself. I wish her and her sister all the best because they are awesome.

Yeah I would too and I have no idea how she's doing on the show 'cause i've never seen the show before. But I hope that she is doing good because she's a pretty good actress.

If I would pick a twin closer to myself it would have to be Mary Kate, she's more Bohemian and Ashley seems more cosmopolitan.

Some people just can't handle all of the pressure that comes with fame. There are many things that could be contributing to the way she is acting. Could be friends, the stress, her parents, or any other number of things. I do hope life gets better for her though!

Yea, I have just never heard anything about the twins relationship with their parents, do they even have one, Ive never saw pictures of them in tabloids, thats why I was curious.

Maybe Mary Kate's just tired of being overshadowed by her sister and going separate ways is just one of the options.About their parents,I think they just want their girls to be happy.Well,they are happy,they should be,they've got a multi-million dollar clothing line and other good things coming ahead of them.

mary kate seems to despise the money though, the "Bobo" clothing look but luckily I did hear thats becoming a style, many designers are using that for their fashion shows, the disgruntled britney spears looks. Hey, when I was a kid we had the BUM clothing look.
